Agency warns farmers against late purchase of fertilizer

Mr Uche Orji, the Managing Director of the NSIA made this call in an interview with the News Agency of Nigeria (NAN) in Abuja.According to him, his agency, which manages the country’s Sovereign Wealth Fund, is collaborating with the Fertilizer Producers and Suppliers Association of Nigeria (FEPSAN) to make fertilizer distribution less cumbersome henceforth.“We are dealing with it in twofold; we want to start planning early and to start getting our products on time.“We encourage farmers to start buying their fertilizer early because the challenge we have is that most people end up buying fertilizer in June and July.“So there are bottleneck issues with production because the blending plants cannot double their capacity overnight.“We went through a phase where people were not buying fertilizer and suddenly, everybody wants to buy at the same time and to address this, farmers should buy early so that we can blend through the year, if possible,” Orji said.https://www.dailytrust.com.ng/agency-warns-farmers-against-late-purchase-of-fertiliser.html
